This book shows which aspects of homosexuality are culturally variable and which are not and explores the implications for current descriptions and explanations of homosexuality. Utilizing a combination of quantitative and qualitative material, the authors draw conclusions about the nature of homosexuality across cultural boundaries. Among their findings: homosexuals comprise approximately five percent of the population in each country no matter the degree of repressiveness or acceptance; homosexuals in different societies appear to have the same occupational and leisure-time interests; and their psycho-sexual development is similar and characterized by similar patterns of early cross-gender behavior.
